August 7, 201610 yr Considering what's out there discussing his deals and failure to pay contractors, I don't know how he gets anybody to do his work. He has stiffed thousands of "little guys" millions of dollars. I've built a few homes/buildings , it can be extremely rewarding and extremely frustrating. Worked with some great contractors/companies and worked with some that I never want to see again. If a contractor did everything to spec and Trump didn't pay them, he should be grilled on this. If they didn't live up to their end then we should grill them. There's good and bad contractors out there, I'd guess Trump has ran into his share of losers in his long build career.

TR, it won't take much effort to find out his MO. One of the most egregious is Atlantic City.

Trump has had 60 cases that went to trial over 35 years due to contract disputes.
August 7, 201610 yr Author Are we ever going to get over the Hillary "love fest"? Gotta admit, I'm not seeing a lot of that. Not quite sure how that relates to the face of the GOP, though.
August 7, 201610 yr Gotta admit, I'm not seeing a lot of that. Not quite sure how that relates to the face of the GOP, though. The constant slamming of Trump by the Left when their candidate is just as bad. And visa versa. To put Hillary up as better than Trump is laughable.
August 7, 201610 yr USA TODAY Network: Dive into Donald Trump's thousands of lawsuits - USA TODAY Nice infographic on Trump's 4000+ lawsuits.

Thanks to the USA today for trying to slam Trump . It really isn't a story at all. So if the defendant wins or the case is dismissed nothing happened? Good to know :lol2:.
August 7, 201610 yr So if the defendant wins or the case is dismissed nothing happened? Good to know :lol2:. That's obvious. Anyone can sue anyone for anything. Rich people and businesses get sued all the time by people hoping to get a quick easy settlement. Dismissal usually means there was no merit to begin with and it was frivolous. You know that but you can continue with your frivolous attempted character assassination. Still not helping the dark queen.

In one case, Trump didn't pay a piano dealer who supplied pianos to one of his casinos or resorts that later ran into financial difficulties. Repeated letters requesting payment were ignored. Finally the piano dealer got a letter from Trump's lawyers offering 70%. Take it or sue me, the small businessman was told. Hundreds Claim Donald Trump Doesn'''t Pay His Bills in Full - NBC News

August 7, 201610 yr That's obvious. Anyone can sue anyone for anything. Rich people and businesses get sued all the time by people hoping to get a quick easy settlement. Dismissal usually means there was no merit to begin with and it was frivolous. You know that but you can continue with your frivolous attempted character assassination. Still not helping the dark queen. Alright here it is. This will be the only warning in this thread regarding the matter. Posting comments like the end of the one quoted will NOT be tolerated. Regardless of how you feel about he candidate(s) we will all refrain from the snippy monikers labeling each. If you need to make a post, it's expected that you use their correct names sans the snarky commentary that incites the other side of the aisle. If there's a post that doesn't comply with this, it will be deleted and so will the offender who will be left on the outside looking in. This forum will be civil, bottom line.
August 7, 201610 yr Would be interested in knowing if anyone complaining about the lawsuits has actually owned a business. I own one . 7-10 employees . The regulatory burdens are so great I can barely keep on top of it . Can you imagine ( probably not) owning dozens and dozens of corporations ? Do you really think Trump was ask " Hey Big Don you want to pay the piano guy or not " ? For as much as an egotistic jerk he can be he had the guts to go for stuff , build this , restore that and most of it was pretty dang successful . It even employed 1000's of people . But to the jealous haters on here everything he does is evil. Such total drivel. How many of you have a tower in Vegas with your name on it ?
